[QUOTE="Star*, post: 160930, member: 4964"] Cat - I'm sending you tons of encouragement. I'm curios what migraine medicines anyone could possibly get for $20. Mine are outrageous - BUT I also know The weather can influence them Hormones influence them Not eating properly will influence them Caffeine withdrawl from not eating - OHhhhhh bad. Also - packing your head in ice helps me tremendously - sometimes even more than the medicine. Excederine Migraine tablets OTC can sometimes stave off the pressure kind when I get unilateral headaches IF I take it as SOON as I get even a twinge and recognize the "light faries" or light auras - mine looks like snow coming down. When I get crippling migraines the ONLy thing I can take that will help is Relpax. If I get them in time - I can usually help my head and go lay down with ice, sleep and wake up weak but not in pain. When I get the whoppers - NOTHING helps and it's off for a shot in the kiester and some phenegran for nausea. I hate them - I can't walk, or talk. I would think - her's are probably worsened by the fact that she does not eat. You may mention that to her. Good luck - and no, I dont' care what age your "kids" are = it's never easy to walk away from them in this type of situation. Ever. Go with your gut. And go get an adjustment. [/QUOTE]
